Strings Res setting
The String Resonance Modelling includes 3 natural effects:
Strings Resonance: this effect has been analyzed and repro-
duced by the Studiologic Lab‘s team and implemented with
many improvements, that allow to have a very warm and na-
tural effect (as compared to many other instruments) with a
wider frequency response and a very realistic sound. The ef-
fect reproduces the resonance of all strings, when the Dam-
per pedal is pressed, creating a kind of very typical acoustic
reverberation of all strings and their harmonics.
Sympathetic Resonance: playing a key on an acoustic piano
allows the damper of that particular note to be released, and
it also lets the string/s of that key play and resonate. As a
consequence, even when only one key is kept pressed, any
other key played on the keyboard can resonate, if there are
harmonics positioned in the same frequency range. In other
words, a very subtle but evident partial string resonance can
be heard also when the Damper pedal is not pressed and
few keys are played. Numa Stage also reproduces this natural
acoustic effect.
Soundboard resonance: acoustic pianos (and in particular
the grand pianos) are very reactive structures, that resonate
with the played notes (as well as with external sound sour-
ces) even without activating the damper pedal (also due to
the top octvave strings, normally without any damper). This
“soundboard resonance” is so evident that a piano tuner
needs to artificially stop all other strings (with felt of clothes)
when tuning the instrument. The Numa Stage also reprodu-
ces this natural effect, that completes the Strings Resonance
Modelling.
To access the settings press Function & Strings Res . the dis-
play shows the current level, from Off to 10, and the amount
of all 3 above described Strings Resonance effects can be
controlled according to your taste (suggested levels: 3-4)
Note: when a Modulation Effect is selected (e.g. Chorus etc)
the Strings Resonance is automatically set to Off, in order to
avoid any over post-processing of the selected sound.
